1 OVERVIEW
10 Features and Functions
Features and Functions
Extensive Client Platform Support
This equipment supports printing from IBM-compatible PC.
Various Port Options
You can map this equipment to print to an SMB, IPP, Raw TCP, WSD, or LPR port.
Multiple Job Types
Job Types refer to the way this equipment handles a print job.
The Normal mode requires no special handling and is the most frequently used printing mode.Overlay File prints a document element, such as text or graphics, to a file for superimposing on the
background of other documents.
Professional Finishing Options
Depending on the type of finishing units you have installed, you can choose to sort, group, fold and staple your documents (including saddle-stitching) and punch binding holes. Available functions differ from model to model.
Sophisticated Document Layout and Assembly Options
You can choose whether to print your document as you have set it up in the application, or to impose printer­driven document layout options such as printing in Book Format or printing Multiple Pages per Sheet. Additionally, the printer drivers provide the ability to print selected pages on different media. This includes printing front and back covers, inserting sheets at predefined positions within the document, or interleaving pages so that every other page is inserted blank or printed on a different type of media.
Various Sizes of Printing Paper Available
You can define custom paper sizes other than the standard ones to print data created with your application.
1.OVERVIEW
Features and Functions 11
1 OVERVIEW
Watermark and Image Overlay Support
Watermarks are a great way to subtly convey useful information about your printed documents. Common watermarks are “Confidential,” “Draft,” and “Original.” Several watermarks have been pre-defined for use with your documents, or you can create and save your own custom watermarks. Watermarks consist of text. Image Overlays can be any combination of text, graphics or other document elements. Printing watermarks consumes fewer resources than using Image Overlays, so you should use watermarks wherever possible, particularly when printing speed is an issue.

Configuration Settings
To use optional devices such as optional drawers, the Finisher or Hole Punch Unit, you must first configure these devices. The features of these optional devices are not available unless you inform the system that the optional devices are installed.
Before printing, you can configure the following option if necessary:
Department Code
You can use department codes to manage each job. For example, a system administrator can check how many sheets of copies a certain department has made. When the Department code is enabled, you are prompted to enter a department code before printing. If you enter the department code in the corresponding field in advance, you can print without having to do this every time. Ask your administrator about the codes. When SNMP communication between the equipment and your computer is enabled, you are also prompted to enter the code before printing.

Setting the department code
When this equipment is managed by department codes, you have to enter yours on the printer driver. This allows a network administrator to check the number of copies printed by specific department members. Also users can check who submitted the print jobs, by touch panel display and monitoring tools. Please ask your administrator whether you should enter the Department Code.
When the User Management setting is enabled, it is used to manage a print job instead of the
Department Code Management setting. In this case, a user name that has been entered to log in to your computer is used for the authentication of the print job. Therefore, you do not need to set your department code to the printer driver but you must register your user name in advance. If your user name is not registered, the print job is processed as an invalid one according to the User Authentication Enforcement setting. Also if a print job is sent in RAW format, it is processed according to the RAW Print Job setting. For more information about the User Authentication Enforcement setting or the RAW Print Job setting, refer to the TopAccess Guide.
If the No Limit Black function is enabled, you do not have to specify the department code when you print
a document with [Black and White] selected for the [Color] option in the [Basic] tab of printer driver.
How the equipment performs printing for an invalid department code print job, for which an invalid
department code is specified, varies depending on the Invalid Department Code Print Job setting that can be set in the TopAccess Administrator mode and whether SNMP communication is enabled or not.
- When SNMP communication is enabled and Invalid Department Code Print Job is set to [Store to invalid job list], an error message will be displayed when an invalid department code is entered.
- When SNMP communication is disabled and Invalid Department Code Print Job is set to [Store to invalid job list], the invalid department code print job will be stored in the invalid department code print job list without printing.
- When the Invalid Department Code Print Job is set to [Print], the invalid department code print job will be printed.
- When the Invalid Department Code Print Job is set to [Delete], the invalid department code print job will be deleted.
A department code needs to be entered every time you begin printing. If you have to use a different
department code for each print job, enter it when you begin printing.
Entering department code
For Windows 8 or Windows Server 2012, see the procedures in the following section. P.19 “Accessing the printers folder on Windows 8 / Windows Server 2012”

Considerations and limitations
When the User Management setting is enabled, it is used to manage a print job instead of the Department
Code Management setting. In this case, a user name that has been entered to log in to your computer is used for the authentication of the print job. Therefore, you do not need to set your department code to the printer driver but you must register your user name in advance. If your user name is not registered, the print job is processed as an invalid one according to the User Authentication Enforcement setting. Also if a print job is sent in RAW format, it is processed according to the RAW Print Job setting. For more information about the User Authentication Enforcement setting or the RAW Print Job setting, refer to the TopAccess Guide. When the Windows Domain Authentication is used for the User Management Setting, your computer must log in the domain.
If the No Limit Black function is enabled, you do not have to specify the department code when you print a
document selecting [Black and White] in the [Color] option in the [Basic] tab of printer driver.
Some print options can be set from both the application and the printer driver, such as collation. If the
collation is set from the application, documents may not be properly printed. If that happens, use the printer driver to set the collation. Depending on the application, some print options such as the orientation need to be set from the application. For print options that can be set from both the application and the driver, refer to the manual of the application.
The model below does not support printing from Universal PS3 and Universal XPS printer drivers, but only
from a Universal Printer 2 (PCL6) printer driver.
- e-STUDIO2551C Series
Cautionary points when using the Universal PS3 printer driver
In printing with the Universal PS3 printer driver from Adobe Acrobat, the print function for choosing the
paper source corresponding to the PDF page size will be disabled even though it has been selected. If you want to print with PostScript utilizing this function, use the Universal Printer 2 printer driver, click [Customization] on the [Device Settings] tab, and select [PostScript] in the [Output PDL] box of the [PDL Settings] tab.
When any of the following functions is set in the Universal PS3 printer driver, the print function will work
appropriately even if print data are generated in the application side since this happens in the printer driver side by ignoring the pass-through printing of the application.

Setting Up Print Options
Print Options are the attributes you set to define the way a print job is processed. For example, the private print and proof print options determine how the copier manages your print job.
To find the printing instructions for your specific needs, see the procedures in the following section. P.97 “Printing With Best Functions for Your Needs”
How to set up
There are several ways to set print options. How the settings affect printing varies depending on the way you set the options. The tabs displayed also vary depending on how you display the printer properties.
Setting initial values of print options
Setting the print options by displaying the printer properties from the Printers folder within the Windows Start menu will establish the initial values of the options. For example, the paper size setting you most commonly use, optional device settings, user information settings, etc., are settings you will not want to change every time you print. It is convenient to set these options as initial values.

The password must be between 1 and 63 characters. The print job, sent as a private job, is saved in the private job queue on this equipment, and is not printed until you activate printing from the touch panel display. This option is useful when you want to print a confidential document that is secured by a password.

If a print job is sent as a proof job, one copy of the job is printed and the remaining copies are saved in the proof job queue on this equipment, which are not printed until you activate printing from the touch panel display. This option allows you to check a job’s output before printing the remaining copies and thereby reduce paper waste.
When you want to print multiple copies, each of which is to be sent as an individual print job by your application, all the copies, not just one copy, will be printed even if you set Proof Print. In such a case, print just one trial copy first, and then specify the required number of copies on the touch panel display.

For example, if you want to print a master page image on the background of a document, you can create an overlay file of the master merge image using this option. Then you can print a document using this overlay by specifying this file as an overlay image in the [Overlay Image] option of the [Effect] tab.
If the print job has several pages in the document, only its first page will be saved as an overlay file.Both the overlay file and the documents on which you superimpose the overlay image must be
created with the same size and color mode.
- Store to e-Filing
Select this to save a job to e-Filing. When this is selected, select the box from the box after the print setting has been finished. When the SNMP communication is enabled, it detects the available box numbers and Box name in the box. If not, all box numbers are listed in the box. If you select a user box, you may be required to enter the appropriate password for the selected box. The job saved to a box can be printed from the touch panel display at a later time. It can also be composed with other documents using the e-Filing web utility. You can also print a job and save it to a box by checking on the [Print] option.
Documents stored in e-Filing are retained with the best image quality for printing. If you want to
download them into your computer with a higher image quality, scan the original documents and store them in e-Filing.
When you store a document in e-Filing using the printer driver, the printing image (not the original
document in your computer) will be stored in e-Filing.

Up to 31 characters can be entered for the [User name (Alias)] box.The user name that is entered to log in to your computer is initially used for [User name (Alias)]. If
the user name is not changed, the log-in user name is displayed on the Private Print job list and Hold Print job list.
The nickname entered for the [User name (Alias)] box is applied only to the Private Print job list and
Hold Print job list. On other job list screens (Scheduled Print jobs / Invalid jobs) and the Print Log screen, the log-in user name is always displayed.
12)Department Code
Enter the user’s department code if the system is managed with department codes. Please ask your administrator for your department code.
When the User Management setting is enabled, it is used to manage a print job instead of the
Department Code Management setting. In this case, a user name that has been entered to log in to your computer is used for the authentication of the print job. Therefore, you do not need to set your department code to the printer driver but you must register your user name in advance. If your user name is not registered, the print job is processed as an invalid one according to the User Authentication Enforcement setting. Also if a print job is sent in RAW format, it is processed according to the RAW Print Job setting. For more information about the User Authentication Enforcement setting or the RAW Print Job setting, refer to the TopAccess Guide.
If the No Limit Black function is enabled, you do not have to specify the department code when you
print a document with selecting [Black and White] in the [Color] option in the [Basic] tab of the printer driver.
If the number of the printed sheets for a print job exceeds the output limitation for the entered
department code, the print job is stored in the invalid department code print job list without printing. When you want to print the print job, perform printing from [JOB STATUS] on the touch panel by entering another department code for which the output limitation is more than the number of printed sheets.
In the [Department Code] box, you can enter a department code within 63 characters.
How the equipment performs printing for an invalid department code print job, for which an invalid department code is specified, varies depending on the Invalid Department Code Print Job setting that can be set in the TopAccess Administrator mode and whether SNMP communication is enabled or not.
- When SNMP communication is enabled and Invalid Department Code Print Job is set to [Store to
invalid job list], an error message will be displayed when an invalid department code is entered.
- When SNMP communication is disabled and Invalid Department Code Print Job is set to [Store to
invalid job list], the invalid department code print job will be stored in the invalid department code print job list without printing.
- When the Invalid Department Code Print Job is set to [Print], the invalid department code print job
will be printed.
- When the Invalid Department Code Print Job is set to [Delete], the invalid department code print job
will be deleted.

The model below only supports [PCL6]. Printing is not available when [PostScript] is selected.
- e-STUDIO2551C Series
2) Output Format
This selects an output format for PostScript printing. This setting can be changed only when [PostScript] is selected in the [Output PDL] box.
- ASCII
— A job is sent in ASCII format (enabling PostScript code editing with a text editor or a word
processor).
- Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) — A job is printed as an image file in EPS format (for PostScript­compatible printers).
- Using Adobe DSC — A job is sent in PostScript format that is optimized to reduce printing errors.
EPS format is usually used for creating images to be imported into a document. Therefore, only the first page of a document can be printed when [Encapsulated PostScript (EPS)] is selected. Also the destination where the paper should exit can be set only by the administrator. For the details, ask your administrator.
3) Print Error Information
This prints PostScript errors which occurred during printing. This setting can be changed only when [PostScript] is selected in the [Output PDL] box.
